INTRODUCTION TO CYCLIC CODES AND ILLUSTRATION OF THEIR IMPLEMENTATION THROUGH LINEAR FEEDBACK SHIFT REGISTERS WITHIN A PROGRESSIVE WEB APPLICATION

Abstract

This paper provides an introductory overview of cyclic codes of Hamming type and showcases their effectiveness in detecting and correcting errors in digital communications. Thus, a Progressive Web Application has been developed through React.js and p5.js JavaScript libraries to simulate the coding operations using Linear Feedback Shift Registers. This GUI serves an educational purpose, being used in Information Transmission Theory laboratories so that students could easier comprehend this particular coding scheme. The results obtained highlight the efficiency of developed software application in the e-learning process of cyclic code of Hamming type and its adeptness in error detection and correction within digital communications.
